name: chapter_review description: > Independent chapter review. Agent reads the chapter and produces a structured critique with mandatory verbatim prose quotes, score-anchored verdict, and explicit character voice violation checks. debug: true rag_exclude: [business_plan, charter] model: power system: agent_prompt agent_prompt: - system.md sections: - project - rag - message - instructions steps: - type: think max_tokens: 5000 hint: | TARGET AUDIENCE: {genre_audience} GENRE: {genre_name} CHAPTER: {chapter_ref} --- CHAPTER TEXT: {chapter_text} --- Write a detailed editorial review. You MUST quote the actual text to support every claim you make. Vague commentary ("the pacing drags") without a quoted passage is not acceptable and will cause this review to fail adjudication. Structure your review using EXACTLY these seven labeled sections: 1. PROSE EVIDENCE Quote 3-5 passages verbatim from this chapter (use quotation marks and indicate approximate position: "early", "mid", "late"). For each quote, give one sentence of inline commentary: what it does well or what it fails to do. This section is MANDATORY -- do not summarize or paraphrase. A review with zero verbatim quotes will automatically score below 70. 2. CHARACTER VOICE AUDIT {character_profiles} If the above block is non-empty: for EACH named character who speaks in this chapter, check their voice against their profile. Quote one line of their dialogue and state YES or NO for each constraint: - Does the character use their signature vocabulary / verbal tics? - Do they avoid any explicitly forbidden speech patterns? - Is their emotional register consistent with their arc position? If a violation is found, quote the offending line and state exactly what rule is broken (e.g. "Dorian uses contraction 'don't' -- profile forbids contractions unless in extreme pain or physical exhaustion. This scene does not qualify."). If the block is empty: check RAG context for "## Voice Signatures" and report what you find. 3. STRENGTHS TO PRESERVE List 2-4 elements working well that must survive the editorial process unchanged. Each item must include a verbatim quote or specific scene reference. Generic praise ("the atmosphere is strong") without evidence is not allowed here. 4. MUST-FIX -- CONTINUITY List factual errors, POV breaks, timeline inconsistencies, or world-rule violations. These are non-negotiable. For each item state: - ORIGINAL: quote the offending passage verbatim - PROBLEM: what rule or established fact it violates - FIX: the concrete correction (rewrite the sentence if necessary) 5. MUST-FIX -- CLARITY List passages where meaning is genuinely obscured, transitions are dropped, or threads are left dangling in a way that blocks reader comprehension. For each item: - ORIGINAL: quote the offending passage verbatim - PROBLEM: why it blocks comprehension - FIX: the concrete correction 6. OPTIONAL SUGGESTIONS Craft improvements that would strengthen the chapter but are NOT required for it to pass. Label each suggestion clearly as optional. Include the relevant quote. Do not inflate this section -- only include suggestions with a clear upside and low risk of voice damage. Do NOT suggest adding thematic contrast metaphors, making dialogue more elegant, or smoothing sentence variation -- these are voice PRESERVATION issues, not fixes. 7. FORBIDDEN CHANGES / NON-GOALS List things that might appear to be problems but should NOT be changed -- intentional voice choices, genre conventions, structural decisions that are working. ALWAYS include: verbal tics, repeated phrases, and "imperfect" speech that is clearly a character signature, not an error. 8. VERDICT One of: PASS / REVISE SCORE ANCHORS -- be honest, scores that cluster at 90-96 without strong evidence signal a rubber-stamp review and will be rejected by the adjudicator: 95-100: Zero MUST-FIX items. PROSE EVIDENCE quotes show above-average craft. Voice audit finds no violations. 85-94: 1-2 minor MUST-FIX items. At least one PROSE EVIDENCE quote shows a clear weakness with explanation. 70-84: Clear structural or voice problems. Every MUST-FIX item is quoted verbatim with a rewrite suggestion. Below 70: Multiple serious violations. Every failing passage is quoted and corrected. Automatic REVISE verdict. State your score and a one-sentence justification citing your evidence. Use PASS if only optional improvements remain. Use REVISE if any MUST-FIX items are present. - type: document filename: "Chapter_{chapter_number}_review_{review_letter}" - type: close rag_update: false adjudication: enabled: true pass_threshold: 60 deliverable_type: editorial_review criteria: prose_evidence: weight: 35 description: "Review contains 3+ verbatim quoted passages with inline commentary.
